every thing is possible
DUNG ? !


Sign of worms ?

Normal behaviour ?

lack of mineral ?

whats your take on it ?

Spotted Missy eating her dung out in the field today, she was wormed 2 wks ago , has horse lyx , fed on stud mix, soya oil and linseed with conditioning mix every other day .
 

Usually due to a lack of B vitamins , foals will eat their Mums as a way of innoculating their gut with bacteria to digest celluose

How old is she?
 
I had a horse that used to do that. Never cured it, tried all manner of vit and min supplements but she still did it. Just made sure her worming was upto date and she was fine.
